Under which

Is this correct?


On April 4, 2019, Big3 announced a new broadcast deal with https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/CBS_Sports, under which coverage moved to https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/CBS and https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/CBS_Sports_Network.


I don’t see why « under which » is being used.

Could you tell me if « of which » is better?


thanks
